Refugio Betin Dog Shelter

Service Fair 2017 Location | HS ROOM 13

This is a student led service project that started in December 2016. The three students, Daniela Zaragoza, Samantha Torres, and Aurelia Michel continued to lead Saturday visits to the shelter to support the various needs of both the dogs and the facilities. They have taken it a step further as all three are using the refugio to guide their Senior Project and improve specific aspects of the shelter and ASFG's relationship.
